Florida Attorney General Proposes Legislation to Stop Sexual Predators from Pursuing Surrogacy, Adoption, Foster Care

In a video announcement, Uthmeier said he wants to work with the Florida legislature to introduce the “Protecting Kids from Predators Pursuing Parenthood Act,” and pointed to disturbing incidents across the nation of pedophiles obtaining children through legal loopholes and abusing them. He specifically referenced a recent case out of Pennsylvania, where a registered sex offender who had been convicted in 2016 of child sex abuse and possession of child sex abuse images, obtained a child with his husband through gestational surrogacy.
